Good News, Everyone! I solved the problem. I opened Synaptic Package Manager, checked the package dependencies for TeamViewer, and discovered that #TeamViewer on #Linux recommends the Liberation #fonts.

So, I re-enabled them in Font Manager, logged out and in, and launched TeamViewer, and now everything looks the way it should.

My mother called me today requesting computer support, so I installed #TeamViewer on my new #Linux system, since that's what we've been using for remote control of her MacBook. Everything works fine, except clearly TeamViewer is expecting a font I don't have enabled. The program works fine, but the text in the user interface is a mess.

Screenshot of a modal dialogue box generated by TeamViewer running on Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 (Faye). The spacing of the text is all out of whack.

Op zoek naar alternatieve tools, kwam ik vandaag een open source oplossing voor remote desktop tegen. Nadat #TeamViewer en #AnyDesk vonden dat ik het zakelijk gebruik (laptop op de bank naar desktop in werkkamer) en dus moest betalen, heb ik #AnyViewer gebruikt. Die heeft echter vaak verbindingsproblemen...

Nu kwam ik #RustDesk tegen en de eerste indruk is erg positief!

Binnenkort ook nog even kijken of ik op mijn #Synology #NAS ook nog een selfhosted Rustdesk relay server kan draaien!

Habe heute mal wieder RustDesk ausprobiert und es lief erstklassig!

Eigentlich nur, weil Teamviewer mich nicht mehr reinlässt (habe es wohl übertrieben damit) und ich nach einer Alternative gesucht habe.

Aber habe gar keine Lust mehr, was anderes zu verwenden. RustDesk ist wirklich klasse!

I use to do remote support on my mother's phone and tablet about once every two months. The devices are named "Mom's Phone" and "Mom's Tablet". Nevertheless about every six months they believe I'm using their service commercially. It's so fucking annoying.

Before everybody recommends RustDesk: I tried that, but the app is way too clunky and technical for an average end user. And the way you secure your server gave me an uneasy feeling. Feels like creating an unsecured service.

あまりに多くの人をサポートし過ぎてるかはわからないけど、TeamViewerが商用利用してるだろって言ってきた。

…してねーよ!!!!
PCサポートでお金もらえるんだったらもらいたいよ!!!!!!!

Bank musi oddać 19 tys. zł seniorce okradzionej “na Orlen”

Po raz kolejny polski sąd orzekł, że ofiara oszustwa internetowego powinna otrzymać zwrot pieniędzy od banku. Ostatnia z tego typu spraw jest efektem interwencji Rzecznika Finansowego i obroniła się w dwóch instancjach.

Ten temat wałkujemy w Niebezpieczniku od sześciu lat! Jeśli klient banku straci pieniądze w wyniku phishingu albo np. kradzieży “na zdalny pulpit” to bank musi te pieniądze oddać i powinien to zrobić w ciągu jednego dnia roboczego. Podstawą prawną jest art. 46 Ustawy o usługach płatniczych. Idea stojąca za takim przepisem jest bardzo konkretna – banki mają tak projektować swoje systemy, aby do oszustw nie dochodziło (czyli np. system antyfraudowy nie powinien być traktowany jako zbędny luksus).
Prawo jest takie od lat, ale wciąż spotykamy ludzi, dla których jest to dość niewiarygodna nowinka prawna. Znajdziemy też ofiary przestępstw, które nie mają pojęcia, że ich pieniądze są do odzyskania. Wynika to m.in. z faktu, że banki od lat ignorują to prawo  nie wypłacając ofiarom kradzieży należnych pieniędzy. Banki powołują się przy tym na nieistotne okoliczności, albo na tzw. “rażące niedbalstwo” klientów, które – owszem – może wyjątkowo przenieść odpowiedzialność na klienta. Rzecz w tym, że bycie ofiarą przestępstwa nie jest “rażącym niedbalstwem” co potwierdziły liczne wyroki, w tym jeden wyrok Sądu Najwyższego.
Udana interwencja Rzecznika Finansowego
Już w roku 2019 Rzecznik Finansowy zapowiadał, że będzie walczył z bankami o właściwe realizowanie praw klientów. W ramach tych działań RF postanowił m.in wystąpić do sądu z powództwem w imieniu jednej z ofiar przestępstwa. Była nią 85-letnia kobieta, która kliknęła w reklamę inwestycji w Orlen na Facebooku. Została [...]

@mrmasterkeyboard @0xF21D @cesarpose for individiuals who do stuff on the side and who definitely don't make ends meet with #FLOSS I don't assume malice or incompetence unless proven otherwise.

  • If this were like #TeamViewer or #AnyDesk who charge triple digits per seat and year I'd not accept that tho!

Granted #Dayon is AFAICT the only competitive offering if #MeshCentral, #RustDesk & #Remotely are too overkill and that works on the convenient "Reverse-Server" model where one needs to only configure the network on the Assistant end, not on the end of the user seeking help.

  • Which is espechally desired for systems that one hasn't onboarded or ain't intended to get onboarded as a matter of principle (i.e. individual clients' desktops)...

@ml I've heard of #RustDesk, but lets just say the whole "it's not #SaaS!" when it clearly is a #subscription #licensing scheme is kinda off-putting to me...
rustdesk.com/pricing/?lang=en

That doesn't mean they are bad - far from it.

I just use #Dayon because it's very easy to walkthrough #TechIlliterates when it comes to getting #RemoteSupport up and running with them.

Seriously, if I was #LinusSebastian of #LinusTechTips I'd literally choose to #donate the cost of a #TeamViewer #subscription to #FLOSS #RemoteDesktop projects like #Dayon instead and sue TeamViewer into upholding their contract or a full refund with interest as if it was a loan because clearly they chose violate that contract on their own terms and initiative!

youtube.com/watch?v=RT1t1JlZug

And yes, Dayon! is awesome and I can fully recommend this as an alternative to TeamViewer, #AnyDesk, etc.

retgal.github.io/Dayon/

  • For any system that needs Remote Access as unattended I'd recommend to setup a #VPN or at least a Reverse-#SSH connection anyway so one can launch something like Dayon! by just sending a single command and have #RemoteDesktop access on-demand.

So yeah, TeamViewer literally shot themselves in the foot here by deciding to shaft paying customers who were able and willing to pay the absurd prices you asked for for a one-time license.

  • Also whilst TeamViewer does OFC maintain some infrastructure, most what they do is basically run a "rendrevous"-Server to allow two endpoints behind NATs to connect to each other and exchange details to make UPnP-style hole-punching work.

That's traffic in the single-digit megabytes per year and client, as there's not much between as clients pinging their server and basically boing some simple handshakes.

  • And as Linus said it's not his problem if they gotta have to keep systems up and running in perpetuity. They offered that deal and now they have to suffer through it! By paying the obligations are on to TeamViewer to make it work and continue to make it work!

Also if I'm on a #LAN why would I want to use TeamViewer and not any #VNC (or god forbid #RDP) server? THE WHOLE POINT OF USING TeamViewer, AnyDesk, etc. IS TO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT NATs, FIREWALLS AND IP-ADDRESSES AND JUST GET CONNECTED FFS!!!

  • Personally I use #Remmina and Dayon, but that's because Remmina is comfortable even for SSH and can do that as well as RDP & VNC and Dayon is just the simple option I can walktrough people that need #TechSupport #remote|ly for a quick hands-on...

Definitely my recommendation because it also allows for any use-cases and doesn't nag one to "buy a license!"

  • So please someone please let #Linus know about Dayon so he can do a "TeamViewer alternatives" video...

I've started gradually replacing and on all desktops I provide support for with .

Sometimes I am deciding, sometimes the owner does, depending on my role with them! Slow but steady path to software freedom and privacy.

This is a showing after replacing with - in Spanish 😎
